The first is a Pachanoi x Bridgesii hybrid from Bob Ressler (a Trichocereus collector\/grower with over 30 years of experience). Bob\u2019s Colossus is well known and even has specimens growing in the Berkeley Botanical Gardens. The second is a Pachanoi from Misplant Seeds. Both cultivars grow to be incredibly thick. In this case, it is Misplant\u2019s Pachanoi.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scopulicola Information\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trichocereus scopulicola or &#8220;Scop&#8221; is another species of fast growing columnar cacti that are originally from Bolivia. They are closely related to the San Pedro cactus and can look similar. The main difference between Scops and San Pedro are<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Scops are typically a lighter green color than San Pedro<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Scops typically have very small spines and areoles or can even be completely spineless<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Scops often grow thicker than San Pedro<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Scops commonly do not produce many offsets, whereas San Pedros tend to grow bushy with age<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, similar to the San Pedro, Scops produce very large and beautiful flowers. They can also survive at high elevations and withstand cold temperatures. They can struggle with heat and lack of water, unlike many other species of cactus. Scops can make very eye-catching ornamental cacti or they can make a fantastic grafting stock. Scops are often a preferred grafting stock as they are very prolific growers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MP Scop Information<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>MP Scop is a Scopulicola named cultivar that came from Misplant Seeds. Misplant is a highly regarded and respected Trichocereus breeder. MP Scop is a perfect Scopulicola specimen that embodies the species beautifully. It has thick, fat, and rounded growth, small areoles, extremely small spines, and an enchanting light green color.<\/p>\n<p><strong>These specific seedlings: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These seedlings are a hybrid of Misplant&#8217;s Colossus and MP Scop. The first cactus listed are the seeds&#8217; &#8220;mother&#8221;. This is the plant that had the flower that was pollinated and where the fruit &amp; seeds developed. The second plant is pollen donor or considered the &#8220;father&#8221; plant. For example: Mother cactus x Father cactus<\/p>\n<p>The seeds came from Misplant Seeds, batch #0761.
